When we've set up the deviantART groups and whatever we use for submissions, we point the users to our guidelines, which clearly states what our requirements are.

Generally, we should be OK to assume people have checked their licensing. The moderators should look for inappropriate content (like nudity and such things) and obvious licensing problems (like using a big corporate logo on the wallpaper) as well as check that the submissions are technically as expected (no lossy images, as discussed earlier in the PNG/BMP/JPG thread).

Once the moderating is done, the moderators should add the new submission (or a link to that) to a central listing (like a wikipage) where somebody who updates the website can pick up one when needed.

Our submissions/gallery should probably also note that we take no responsibility over the contents licensing issues whatsoever, even if it's partly pre-moderated, just to be on the safe side. Elizabeth, comments?

Cheers,
Pasi

Hi,

So, I'm new to this thing and about the guidelines... How do we check and/or verify if the background someone is using is CC-licensed or can be freely shared?
